Aerosmith confirmed and said that they are looking forward to prepare a new song on their upcoming ‘Music From Another Dimension!’ album.Presumably, that meant working with Jack Douglas again, the producer who
helped shaped the band’s early sound. It also means choosing songs that
are almost a decade in the making.
“It just had a good message and Steven was feeling it,” he says. “So
we held on to it and finally, it’s seen the light of day.” Frederiksen
also wrote a song called ‘Lover Alot,’
which he says came from the same period in time. “A whole different
beast, man — just rockin’, loose and uptempo. That’s the great thing
about songwriting and being able to work with a band like this, you can
do something old-school rock and then do a beautiful ballad.”
The successful rock songwriter was also on hand to help Tyler and
Julian Lennon’s team write ‘Someday,’ which he says was written in 90
minutes. Frederiksen is listed as co-producer on three songs, with
Douglas handling the rest. “I think the ones that Jack produced are more
‘band guy’ songs,” he says.
